8. In 2015, Donald Trump Announced His Candidacy for President
Trump was far from mainstream within the Republican party; populists supported him on the fringes who were drawn to his rhetoric against illegal immigration. He did not have the support of the establishment, something that those populists celebrated when, in 2015, he announced his candidacy for the office of president. He remarked that he did not need the support of the establishment because he was rich enough to fund his campaign.
